“You may choose to look the other way, but you can never say again that you did not know.” – William Wilberforce

Life seems surreal at this moment, many theories and ideas are floating around, people seem worried, anxious and scared. For myself, I have many questions and concerns about the current situation which led me to do some of my own research. You will find information and quotes taken from credible sources such as the World Health Organization (WHO). I hope that the information provided, will put the current situation into a different perspective for you, dissipating some of the fear, anxiety and hysteria.

PLEASE NOTE: I fully understand the seriousness of the situation, the importance of “flattening the curve” with measures such as social distancing because this virus is extremely contagious. I also have great respect for and am very grateful to every individual who is working on the front lines to support each one of us and the ones who need extra care in these challenging times. However, I also believe in the importance of educating ourselves which includes “looking deeper behind the scenes” and using our intelligence with an inquisitive mind.

I hope this message finds you well. In my next posts, I will focus on simple, yet effective ways, you can easily implement to stay strong and healthy.
